I don't remember the first LP that I bought (I'm pretty sure it was lame), but thankfully I remember the first LPs that I PLAYED (to the chagrin of my older sibs). At about age 6 or so, I played and played (and played) S&G "Bookends,", "Tommy" by The Who, and Iron Butterfly "Inagaddadavida" (unsure of spelling there). Aaaaah, that simplistic drum solo replays in me noggin sometimes.........I now have excellent LPs of the first two, and wouldn't waste my money on the third (in my opinion). Hmmmmm....I think I'll go play "Hazy Shade of Winter" right now! Thanks for the nostalgia trip tireguy!
I don't remember much, but I remember......
Not sure about you guys but it seems to me that things are getting a little tense here again and we need to have a little bit of fun! I was enjoying an evening of listening to my rig and then I saw it...my first CD(sorry guys too young for LP's!). I remember everything about the day I got it, the weather, the time, where it was purchase, even the price! The CD was U2's "Achtung Baby" I put the CD in(I have not listened to it in years)and was brought back to a time not too long ago when things seemed.....well, simpler. Then I got to think what a profound impact that one event had on my life, the joy of music. Does anyone else remember there first CD or LP? did it have as much of an impact on you as mine had on me?
